CHARGES OF BRIBERY WHICH HAVE CAUSED SEVERAL
PERSONS TO GO TO EUROPE.

u
PERSONS TO GO TO EUROPE.
A special to the New York Tribune from Chi
cago, October 8, says: States Attorney Grinnell
will not leave his present office until his successor
is elected This will give him nearly two months in
which he can finish up the county Doodle bust ness
ana start other Investigations to be prosecuted
by his successor. 1t is stated that a special
grand jury will soon be impanelled to inves-
t1gate certain charges against alleged bOodlers
In the city and In one or two suburban towns
sheridan, who SO suddenly and mystertously
disappeared from his home in this city, Is be-
leved to be making tour OF the country, like the
famous jOurneyings OF "Nic' Schneider and
Butcher" Bipper. and 1t is expected that when
all he knows regarding city Doodle affairs should
Indictments be found IT Is also expected that She
idan will go upon the stand and testify against the
boOdlers who may be put on trial One case to be
Investigated relates to the granting OF franchise
q certain corporation for which the corporation
is said to have put up 900 In the hands OF an
alderman now travelling IN Europe, TO be paid by
him to three city officials and one eXcity official
as soon as the ordinance passed. The ordinance
did pass and the money was paid over to the four
men According to the story, they kept 500, 600
tributed among other officials who helped the
scheme. But the ordinance was vetoed, and the
other fellows wanted more money and one OF
them let the cat out OF the bag, and 1t is said Is
ready to corrObOrate whatever testimony may be
given by Sheridan. Another case, almost as In
teresting, involves the agent OF corporation
that now runs suburban railroad. He is stated
to have been met one Monday evening 6y an agent
OF the gang to whom he transferred the snug
sum OF 500, 900. or this the agent Is said to
have pOckeJed $50, 1000, and distributed $4,000
among the other bOodlers certain gentlemen,
now So1ourning In Europe are said to know all
about these transactions, and they are not ex-
pected home until the statute OF limitations en-
ables them to return. The departure OF one or
two other gentlemen for q trip across the sea may
be looked for before grand jury Is summoned to
make the special investigation.
